wow, what an eye-opening week. The last thing I wanted to do was yet another draft of my new novel, but it's as if I see new things, small weaknesses I hadn't before. I have a lot of work ahead of me and need to push my deadline out, but hopefully, this will strengthen my prose while not weakening the story. I just got to get over that ugh feeling in the pit of my stomach.

So many things I want to write and read, so little time to do it in.

Better to do a few things as best as you can, than a lot of things half-heartedly.
